<p>I applied Early Action.</p>

<p>Status: Accepted
GPA: Unweighted- 3.61 out of 4.0
Weighted- I took 5 APs and 3 honors classes.
ACT: 31, this is cumulative
How well you think you did on essays: I worked hard on them. But, after re-reading one of them I realized that I spelled a word wrong. :-/
Anything else?: Solid extracurriculars. Mostly academic, such as the debate team. Only 1 year of Varsity softball. I didn't do everything, but I did really well in the teams/clubs I participated in.
What major you got in / got rejected: I don't think they do this..?</p>

<p>I was offered a Trustee Scholarship for $17,500 a year and they picked me to apply to the honors program. </p>

<p>Hope this helped!</p>

<p>Post #4: What is a "cumulative" ACT score? Did you mean to write "composite" or did you just add up the total of each section? I am curious because an ACT score of 31 is very impressive and a lower ACT composite score should not deter one from applying to the Univ. of San Diego.</p>
